2016 Nissan GT-R NISMO - N Attack Package Review - Dominate The Nurburgring. The Nissan GT-R set a lap record at the infamous Nurburgring posting a time of just over 7 minutes, 8 seconds in 2013. How did the GT-R manage to maintain an average speed of 107 mph for just under 13 consecutive miles? Well they did it using the parts they’re now offering in the NISMO N Attack Package. Let’s brake this down into the various sections which received upgrades, starting with the engine and powertrain. The engine for this unit uses a unique dedicated ECM for proper tuning, carbon fiber intercooler piping, a steel plate mechanical 1.5 way mechanical limited slip front differential, and a 2 way carbon plate mechanical rear differential. The difference between the 1.5 way and 2 way differentials is that a 2 way will provide more locking pressure under deceleration. Moving on to the suspension and brakes, it’s important to understand the Nurburgring is a long, fast track with lots of heavy braking, and a fair amount of rough areas. Hence the GT-R N Attack features Ohlins height adjustable and four way damping adjustable shocks, similar to what is used on the GT3 Nissan GT-R. There are also upgraded sway bars, as well as an altered friction material for the front brake pads in order to deal with the high amount of heat rejection required for the ring. As far as the exterior, of course downforce is a must when you’re traveling at high speeds to maintain grip and stability. In the back is a dry carbon fiber wing with a two-point height adjustment mechanism, and a 12-point angle regulating mechanism, allowing for corrections to downforce and aerodynamics on the go. They’ve also added carbon front fenders, and a rubber front spoiler. Finally, on the interior, the GT-R is fitted with carbon fiber Recaro bucket seats as well as a carbon fiber bulkhead in place of the rear seats. So how much does all of this cost? Well Nissan has split it up into two packages, package A and package B, with Package A including all of the Nurburgring parts shown. For package A, it’s as much as $98,000, meaning you’re suddenly in a quarter of a million dollar Nissan GT-R considering the base price of about $150k for the standard NISMO GT-R. Perhaps a hard pill to swallow considering you could buy two base GT-Rs for the same price as the Nurburgring edition, but it’s impressive nonetheless just how fast this car can be.
